Patient's question:
15-year-old boy, 9 months old, will he develop ADHD after being hit on the head? Will he develop ADHD after being hit on the head?Doctor's answer:
Generally speaking, it is not the case. After being hit on the head, severe conditions may lead to repeated concussions and brain damage. ADHD is not directly related to being hit; it is one of the two common psychological disorders in childhood. It is characterized by inattention and short attention span that are not appropriate for age and developmental level, hyperactivity, and often accompanied by guilt, learning difficulties, behavioral problems, and poor recovery. In addition to treating ADHD, it is recommended that patients pay attention to their diet in daily life and maintain a joyful mood at all times to enhance physical fitness and accelerate the recovery process.
